Actors have no vacation

Chapter 152 The World (6K2)

Guan Chen once thought that publicity was nothing more than worshiping hilltops, offering kickbacks, finding acquaintances’ platforms, and vigorously swiping existence. However, listening to those publicity personnel who had started preparations a few months earlier, this method was barbaric and ancient, and it was not the right way. When you hold a high-quality film in your hand, the market will force the film to be arranged, so the theater is not the biggest problem.

How to accurately let potential audiences know that such a movie is about to be released is the primary purpose of publicity.

A city has its own situation, and it is impossible to generalize when running publicity, and there are many plans.For example, the birthplaces of the protagonists are different. Whichever province they go to, the actors born here will be the main force of propaganda, arousing the regional honor of the local people.

Actors are basically tools at this time.Doing the established things every day, saying repetitive things, running around, is more tiring than filming.

Guan Chen is very different, always full of energy, never dissatisfied with the manuscripts arranged by the publicity personnel, extremely well-behaved, extremely cooperative, and very happy to be a "tool".

While the publicity personnel were moved, they were also willing to arrange more tasks for him.

No matter how small the venue is, Guan Chen doesn’t dislike it. In his words, as a role model and idol, he is learning to be like a sun, emitting light and heat. Although everyone’s reaction to receiving sunlight is different, some people find it dazzling, while others feel It's warm, and some people even hide from the sun, but it doesn't matter. There is no sign of the seeds breaking through the ground before they germinate, and that's because it hasn't reached that point in time.The sun just shines quietly.He believes that everyone can be their own savior.

Guan Chen has a pair of eyes that disdain lying, so the chicken soup he boiled is thick and mellow, and the audience loves it.

This attitude of cherishing every opportunity to show his face naturally makes Guan Chen stand out from other actors who deal with publicity work.

Especially every time he went to a city, Guan Chen would learn the local dialect.He said that this is to accumulate materials for the characters and improve his line skills. "If I play the role of a serial murderer who flees after committing a crime, I can play it more realistically." Have a good impression.

In all Guan Chen's activities, he often "overwhelms the guests", but the effect is usually very good, and he is very adaptable. No matter what the occasion, as long as Guan Chen is put in, he can quickly blend in, and the scene immediately becomes interesting.

Some time ago, Guan Chen participated in "Extreme Man" for the second time as an official guest.

At this time, [Racing Special] is going on.Several hosts need to spend a month to learn racing from professional drivers.

As an ordinary person, through infinite challenges, constantly breaking through the limits of oneself is exactly the value advocated by the program "Extreme Man".

Guan Chen likes this kind of concept, and is also very interested in professional racing cars, so he directly participated in the recording of the final assessment of the [Racing Special Session] without waiting for Director Jin to open another promotional feature for the "Police Story" crew.

The hosts had been learning how to drive for nearly a month at that time, and they were very surprised by Guan Chen's arrival. They still remembered him, and immediately couldn't help showing off to save face for the embarrassment of the last "Wanted in the City".

"Aren't you good at driving?" Shen He provocatively challenged Guan Chen, "What's the use of tracking and anti-tracking, I just speed up, whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! You can't even see the rear of my car!"

"Don't be like this, don't be like this, there's no need to compete with ordinary people. It's not professional." Huang Jin stopped Shen He, threatening to retreat.

"Believe it or not I can outrun you with one hand?", "Believe it or not I can outrun you backwards?", "Believe it or not..."...

Several other hosts also uttered harsh words to Guan Chen one by one, and they quarreled among themselves, childish as hell.

Guan Chen didn't reply to anyone's words.After the assessment started, the hosts took turns to get on the car and go on the road, timed, and finally ranked according to the time it took to complete the laps.

Compared with a month ago, their performance has improved greatly.Everyone was touched by their tenacious spirit.

When it was Guan Chen's turn, Huang Jin and the others bet on how many seconds Guan Chen could run.

Wearing a helmet and mask, the sound outside the car is actually not very audible.Guan Chen got into the car and started, accelerating continuously.

The professional driver who was a part-time coach thought that Guan Chen was taking the lead, and hurriedly tried to slow him down.As a result, Guan Chen passed the corner close to the edge, and the optimal path was simple, efficient, and without any waste.Guan Chen's speed was getting faster and faster, and he was frightened by his ability to control the car.

The coach marveled at Guan Chen's ability to control the car, and was really intimidated when he saw the picture inside the car. "Director Jin, are you looking for an old driver?"

In the car, Guan Chen read the movie's promotional line step by step, while easily controlling the car, running at a frightening speed.

Director Jin almost thought that Guan Chen had hired someone to drive him instead, so he hid himself.Obviously, he didn't know that Guan Chen would behave like this after he came.

How can it be so easy?
When the hosts drove the car before, even though they had practiced for a month, they were still extremely nervous after getting into the car.

Knowing that Guan Chen is really an entertainer, and also an actor, the coach said with a complicated expression that driving the car to this level requires a strong heart and concentration. The higher the speed, the closer to the king of Hades, dancing with death At the same time, overcoming the instinct and operating calmly, this requires a talented driver to show the quality after a long period of training.Guan Chen's current psychological quality and car control ability have already preliminarily possessed the possibility of entering a career.

The hosts were dumbfounded when they heard it, but they faintly felt that it was justifiable, after all, it was that Guan Chen...

After a few laps, Guan Chen ranked No.1 with a disappointing result.Guan Chen got out of the car and came, the hosts had lost all momentum, they just used exaggerated anger to pretend to ask Guan Chen if he had secretly practiced in October and August before coming here.

Guan Chen spread his hands and said that it was his first time to touch this kind of professional racing car.

The host yelled in disbelief. Their cars were all much older than Guan Chen. It was also the first time they drove a professional racing car. Several of them drove their cars outside the track and needed to back up to make a U-turn to get back.

"Obviously, driving is not suitable for you. You are more suitable for lying down and making money." Guan Chen said.

"What?" Everyone was shocked.

"Car repairman." Guan Chen wondered why they were so angry.

How dare you play tricks! ...The hosts punched Guan Chen embarrassingly.

"What else do you know, kid!" Shen He jumped up and wanted to grab Guan Chen's collar, but he seemed afraid of being really beaten, so he just grabbed a ball of air in the end.

Shen He's question is also a question of many people.

There are too many "personal skills" of Guan Chen, and the publicity personnel fully realized the happiness of Director Chen and the screenwriters, and the inspirations emerged endlessly.

In the martial arts show, Guan Chen followed the script and was watching from the audience. He was accidentally involved in a martial arts fight, and angrily went on stage, declaring war on ten of the boys from Cai's class.They had a "fight" on a round table, with fists like machine guns, until the round table was smashed in half.

In the police show, Guan Chen briefly became a policeman for a day, and immediately went crazy, dragging the show team to patrol the streets and alleys.Staring at all the human beings coming and going.He has great ambitions, and in just one day, he also tried to make achievements and destroy the underground casino.It's a pity that the progress was stuck in the interrogation stage. Before Guan Chen could use the towel soaked in water, he was stopped by the captain who heard the news and transferred Guan Chen to the traffic police department.

Sometimes even if there is no program to be on, Guan Chen can still put together a program by himself.

After several promotional variety shows were aired, the number of fans on Guan Chen's Weibo has risen to more than 50.

Guan Chen's mentality is the same as before, and the increase in the number of fans has not affected his creation.

During the publicity period, no matter how busy or tired he was, Guan Chen kept updating Weibo and maintaining a strong creative enthusiasm.

Recently, he didn't have enough time to go to the gym, so when he was doing push-ups in the lounge, he suddenly came up with an idea, saying that he wanted to do prisoner fitness, which was specially taught to fans who had no time to go to the gym during work.

Very positive thought.

The first lesson, 【Bag Pulling Training】.

Guan Chen invited Yao Zhiyu to act as an assistant, and asked her to pretend to be walking on the road, while he himself was wearing a terrorist's black hood, and suddenly jumped out from the side, grabbing his bag and preparing to escape.

[What to do if your bag is robbed, don't panic at this time. 】Guan Chen was pulling the bag in slow motion while explaining to the camera, 【Think about it, if the things in the bag are not important and you are small, then I suggest you let go to avoid angering the gangsters and causing danger. Sesame seeds and watermelon.Afterwards, you can call the police and let the police recover the property. ] Yao Zhiyu, as Guan Chen's best partner, has been fully certified in "The Chaser".After hearing that, he immediately let go of his hand.

[However, if there is life-saving cash in the bag, it is not allowed to let go. What you have to do at this time is to tighten the strap, sink the center of gravity quickly, and then kick the ground...]

Yao Zhiyu pulled the strap of the bag with both hands, immediately sank his center of gravity, squatted down, and made a tug-of-war posture.

[The key part of the tug-of-war is actually not the arms, but the legs.If you practice this movement well, you can achieve good results in the tug-of-war competition. 】After Guan Chen finished speaking, he and Yao Zhiyu pulled the bags, each pulling one end, [one two, one two...] and started the tug of war.

[What if you are wearing high heels and it is inconvenient to tug-of-war? ] Yao Zhiyu asked a question.

[If you wear high heels, it would be even better, as long as you learn the advanced movement - "deadly scissor kick", then... I will find someone to demonstrate. ] Guan Chen turned the camera while talking, as if he wanted to grab a bad luck nearby to cooperate with the action demonstration.Those who were illuminated seem to have seen the demon mirror, and they all avoid it.

In the draft of the announcement, Guan Chen was already promoted as the most anticipated new actor in the second half of the year, which is very arrogant, but combined with his performance in variety shows, his experience of being brave, his humility of high education and low airs, and his good personality Passers-by popularity, the outside world has a high acceptance of this statement, it seems that Guan Chen should become crazy and domineering.

However, when the outside world expressed that Guan Chen had a promising future, Zhang Jingsheng sang the opposite and persuaded Guan Chen not to indulge in this false bubble.

Probably because he has studied martial arts, Guan Chen always has a special aura, sitting like a lazy lion, walking like a leopard ready to pounce on him at any time, and there is no unnecessary small movement in his body.It is a good thing to be breathtaking and have a strong sense of presence, but Zhang Jingsheng pointed out that Guan Chen has more than enough strength and not enough flexibility. "Excellent temperament will help you become a blockbuster in the early stage, and later, the exposure of your soul will become the biggest obstacle and shackle on your performance path."

Guan Chen knew what was good and what was bad, and understood that Zhang Jingsheng was risking being hated by him for speaking the truth.Guan Chen didn't take those flattery seriously, he liked to hear people tell him the truth, so he immediately asked Zhang Jingsheng to continue.

Zhang Jingsheng suggested to Guan Chen, learn to restrain and relax, and become an unpredictable liquid creature.

"I'm already very unpredictable." Guan Chen said.

This is unpredictable, it is the evaluation given by Li Yun after chatting with Li Yun a few days ago.

Li Yun found out that he didn't fit in when he was a child, and asked him what he thought at that time.

Guan Chen made it up, saying it was because his classmates were all bad.A classmate in the class got leukemia at a young age, and several other classmates shaved their heads the next day to laugh at her.He despised such behavior, so he decided not to associate with his classmates.

Li Yun laughed loudly, and asked him again if he would make commercial films or literary films in the future.

Guan Chen said that he doesn't care about commercial films or literary films: "We are all afraid of death and wonder about our meaning in the universe. But the task of an artist is not to despair, but to find a way to fight against nothingness." Guan Chen remembers Hawley's words In other words, commercial films make people have the courage to live for a week, and said, "As long as I think a story can bring a little meaning to people after watching it, I am willing to act."

After hearing this, Li Yun was very emotional, saying that Guan Chen was very unpredictable, she had no idea how she would answer the next sentence, and it was impossible to predict.She feels that he has many sides, and many points that have not been shown or even contradicted. Unfortunately, there is not enough time for the interview, so we can only talk about it later.

"It's not this kind of elusiveness." Zhang Jingsheng said, actors like them, who are not professional and technically deterministic, have the advantage of those unregulated charms.

Zhang Jingsheng told Guan Chen, "Acting, especially filming, is very about timing."

After all, film is the art of the director, and an actor can't do it alone.Just as an actor cannot teach another actor what acting is, only a director can.

"The so-called timing means that a specific actor met a specific director at a specific period of his life."

Guan Chen understood.Zhang Jingsheng was telling him not to be complacent.The reason why he can become [the most anticipated new actor] is because he is in the hands of directors Chen and Tian, ​​all potentials can be tapped and abilities can be displayed. If he rushes to the next movie with an arrogant mentality Reality will teach him a painful lesson.

And becoming an "unpredictable liquid creature" allows him to quickly adjust to the corresponding style when facing any director.Loose when it should be loose, tight when it should be tight.

Like water, my friend.

He is familiar with this theory.Do you want to learn acting just like learning fighting, combining the strengths of all schools of thought?
"How to do it specifically?" Guan Chen looked forward to reaching such a state.He more or less wants to try to play a good person.

"First of all, of course it is to see more of the world." Zhang Jingsheng said, "For those who engage in art, vision is sometimes more important than hard work."

Later, when running publicity, Zhang Jingsheng began to take Guan Chen to participate in some dinners and drinks.

At the same table were some officials, dignitaries, rich people, and some people from this association, that association, and the cultural circle.

Guan Chen had many opportunities to meet this kind of world in his previous life.The boss has always wanted to train him and entrust him with more business, but Guan Chen felt that those boring things would shorten his time for practicing boxing, so he has been too lazy to deal with it. Shasha, I'm really not used to facing those things on the table.

Sitting at the wine table, listening to the conversation between Zhang Jingsheng and the bosses, Guan Chen thought to himself, if he could live up to the challenge, wouldn't he be taken as the scapegoat in the end?
The place where Zhang Jingsheng brought Guan Chen to eat was not a hotel, but some private clubs that specialize in closed-door business. They were invited by acquaintances to enter the door, and they only reported the head and did not order.

It's not like an ordinary hotel.Before Guan Chen had dinner at the hotel, he liked to go to the aquarium in the ordering area to watch fish, shrimp and crabs. He either went to the back kitchen to secretly learn how the chef cooks, or he took a few children to play football with them in the open space to exercise their resistance. Collision ability.

There is no aquarium or children in the private club, and no one is allowed in the back kitchen.Fortunately, this kind of place has a high humanistic taste and a large collection of calligraphy and paintings, which is enough for Guan Chen to pass the time.I never paid attention to these things before, although I still don’t understand them now, I am willing to feel them.

During the banquet, the food was sumptuous, and the good tea and wine were not cheap, but Guan Chen looked like he had seen the world, he only drank pure water, and when he turned to the dishes he was interested in, he would pick up a few chopsticks to taste the taste, he didn't push himself hard, and he didn't hesitate. With the mentality of returning money, we only pick expensive vegetable clips.

The bosses should be watching him silently.His performance didn't know how many people had passed the first test in secret. Suddenly, a big boss told Guan Chen that he had friendship with some senior executives of the advertising department of some big brands, and he thought Guan Chen was good, so he could introduce him to him.

Qian Liangyi, who was unlucky in the lottery and accompanied Guan Chen to the dinner, was still eating at the side table just now, when he heard this, he immediately pricked up his ears and widened his eyes.Their studio really has nothing to do with high-end advertising endorsements, and they have no way to spend money.If Guan Chen gets a high-end endorsement, it will be a good thing for the studio and Guan Chen.

However, Guan Chen's reaction was extremely flat. When interacting with people, as long as he thought about money, he couldn't let go of what he wanted to do later.And just listen to the words on the wine table.Although he is not well-educated, he is not an idiot. Knowing that the other party is so kind, it must be profitable.Now that the movie is not released to talk about advertisements, they are all thinking of picking up leaks, and the price will inevitably be greatly reduced.

So Guan Chen put on a look of lack of interest, saying that he is only interested in one kind of endorsement right now——all kinds of official titles.For example, anti-pickup ambassadors, anti-gambling ambassadors, and anti-drug ambassadors... It is best to get all kinds of titles for one round and "smoothly break into the police".

The bosses were speechless. It was not that they had never been rejected before, but this was the first time they met someone with strange needs like Guan Chen.

Zhang Jingsheng introduced Guan Chen, saying that Guan Chen is a person who does not have high material requirements, and what he said above is also true, with a simple sense of justice, and he really wants to do something for the society.

Guan Chen nodded, yes, he is that noble.

The bosses said with a smile, it's a pity that they like to talk about material things at the dinner table.Then the whole night, he didn't pass any more messages to Guan Chen.

Manager Qian was a soft person. On the way back, he kept telling Guan Chen that it was a pity for the advertisement, and then worried that the rejection was so straightforward and the reason was so outrageous, which made those people unhappy.

Guan Chen doesn't care much about whether those people are happy or not, and based on his experience, those who can make a fortune from scratch are not bad-tempered. "And it's just an advertisement, how much is it?"

"Our studio is short of money!" Manager Qian screamed, and then coughed.

Guan Chen knew that Manager Qian had always been cheating, cheating and pretending to be sick, but according to Xing Yun, Manager Qian seemed to have really caught a cold this time. A few days ago, Manager Qian seemed to be working too hard and slept in the office, accidentally catching a cold. He had a cold, but he was stubborn, refused to go to the hospital, and gritted his teeth and insisted on working.The employees were deeply infected, and they had colds and runny noses the next day.Manager Qian, who seriously affected the development of the studio, was pushed next to Guan Chen in advance.

"All right. I'll show you a clear path." As the leader, Guan Chen decided to reward his subordinates.

"What?" Manager Qian asked.Guan Chen's voice is not high, but concise and powerful, often giving him the effect of giving orders.

Guan Chen took out a pen and paper and began to write and draw.

Manager Qian came over to take a look, and found that Guan Chen had drawn a bald, plucked chicken. The color of the egg yolk, according to Guan Chen's text description, could make a horrible scream when pressed, and the volume could be adjusted at any time. The intensity varies.

"Screaming chicken." Guan Chen named the chicken.

The younger brother Wu Yan once told him that sometimes he would feel deserted and bored when he was alone at home, and he really wanted to raise an animal.Go back to Shanghai in a few days, pick toys as gifts, and give a chicken that has not yet appeared in this world. It is easy to feed and lively, which is just right.

After reading the product renderings, Manager Qian silently took out his phone, instead of taking pictures, he called his parents.He called Xie Jinzhu and asked Xie Jinzhu to talk to Guan Chen.

Xie Jinzhu explained to Guan Chen that the studio has been investing recently and the cost is relatively high, but it is only a small problem and he can solve it.Guan Chen decides whether to accept the advertisement or not. The main reason is that he should pay attention to safety when he is out of the house.Xie Jinzhu said that since he has been traveling all over the world for many years, some people would only hack, chop, kill and kill when they were talking about business, which is very uncivilized. "Remember, a strong dragon doesn't overwhelm the local snake. If you don't know the place well, don't be afraid of [-], just in case." Xie Jinzhu repeatedly told Guan Chen.

Guan Chen listened to the persuasion, so in the second day's dinner, with those same people, he took the initiative to chat about very material topics.

"If I endorse the advertisement over there, how much can I get?" Guan Chen asked.

The boss asked him with great interest, "How much do you want?"

Guan Chen made an offer this time: "3000 million, in cash."

The bosses looked at each other, not to mention whether the offer was outrageous, but first asked him, "Why do you want cash?"

There was already some hesitation in the tone, after all, asking for cash reminded them of many unseen operations.

Guan Chen said, "It's convenient to buy mines."

The scene cooled down.

Manager Qian blinked his eyes and thought, there are so many new words in the mouths of young people now, and the old heads can't turn them around.

Guan Chen was lost in memory. In his previous life, he followed his boss to visit many gold mines abroad or on the border of Inner Mongolia and Yunnan. He wondered whether these places had been mined in his memory.Remembering the senior brother's advice to be kind to others, Guan Chen turned around and extended an invitation to the big guys, "I have some rare metal mines here, with large reserves, high grade, and non-toxic. It's a very good business, everyone. Are you interested in joining us?"

Everyone's expressions froze.It turned out to be a real mine...

Manager Qian stared at him, and almost shouted, "You're really good!"

"In a few years, there should be some virtual currency on the Internet, and it will definitely rise. Stock up on some machines, set up a factory to mine, and you can make money." Not only physical mines, but Guan Chen is also very interested in virtual mines. have a thought.

He also said that as long as you buy it and put it aside, even if your business loses money in the future, you can make a comeback immediately.

Manager Qian corrected in his heart, it should be "comeback".But thinking of Guan Chen's literary quality, such a simple idiom will not make a mistake in the part of speech, and cultural people have bad eyes, maybe it is just for irony.

The bosses were silent for a while, combined with the phrase "infiltrate the police" the day before, Guan Chen's background immediately became complicated.They raised their chopsticks frequently, calling everyone to "eat vegetables, eat vegetables", and never chatted with Guan Chen again.

Guan Chen wondered in his heart.

Obviously, the boss and the others were talking about these topics at the dinner table, why did they come here, these bosses reacted like a group of people who have never seen the world...

　Sorry sorry for the late update.

　　A relative died in the family, and I had to accompany the vigil. The environment for coding is not very good, so the efficiency is a bit low.
